Social 20-1

We looked at the aftermath of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor today. The focus was mainly on the internment of Japanese-Canadians in WWII. There's a PowerPoint lecture in your Social 20-1 coursebook that I recommend you read over, and I showed a documentary today called "Tides of War".  The Chapter 5-6 Test is on Thursday, April 5th (tomorrow)

2. Look at what I have emphasized in class (Causes of WWI, nature of WWI, armistice, Paris Peace Conference, Treaty of Versailles, the Interwar Years, rise of ultranationalism in Germany, Italy and Japan): this will be the emphasis of the test, there are several topics in your textbook Chapters 5-6 that WILL NOT be on this test, especially if it is event that occurs AFTER the events listed above (so things like Canada's role in Afghanistan, and Arctic sovereignty won't be on the test)

3. Focus your review on the following big concepts:

• MAIN Causes of World War I
• the nature of World War I (trench warfare, stalemate, total war)

• the Treaty of Versailles (terms of the Treaty of Versailles: GARGLe)
• Hitler's violation of the Treaty of Versailles (chronology; order of events that violated the terms of the Treaty of Versailles)
• the Interwar Years (key events, study your Interwar Years notes from the Unit 2 study booklet)
• the League of Nations (FAILURe of the League of Nations)
• ultranationalism in Germany, Japan and Italy
• failure of collective security (League of Nations) in Manchuria, Abyssinia, and the Spanish Civil War

IB 30/35

It is very timely that we are talking about the U.S. civil rights movement right now, since today marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King. Please have a look at the YouTube video that I have posted below. I finished off the PowerPoint lecture today that I started yesterday, and even had time to give you an idea of how difficult literacy tests were by having you write one in 10 minutes that was used in Louisiana to deny African-Americans to right to register to vote. We'll start the PBS documentary series "Eyes on the Prize" tomorrow.
